About This Track
'TKO' by IVE is a K-Pop track from the EP 'IVE EMPATHY - EP', released in 2025. The lyrics court confrontation with a teasing, self-possessed swagger, repeatedly shifting from a direct address to warnings and a vow of dominance. Lines such as “Better watch out, baby, I bite” underline the threat, while the repeated TKO chant frames it as a competitive, put-down finish rather than a romantic moment. Over the course of the verses, the speaker insists they are not to be underestimated, watching the other person’s confidence wobble under pressure.
"TKO" is a track by IVE, from the album IVE EMPATHY - EP, released 3rd February 2025. The track is 3:06 long. It's filed under K-Pop. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 4 articles about IVE.

The K-pop group return with their third mini-album featuring 'Attitude' and 'Rebel Heart' as title tracks, exploring themes of empathy.

The album and video mark their first release of 2024.

Taking on Icona Pop's 2013 single and giving it its own party bop twist, South Korean girl group IVE are delivering on their sky-high promise.

‘Speak Like You Talk’. ‘Fake History’. ‘The Blackest Beautiful’. letlive. have always asked questions with their music. With ‘If I’m The Devil…’, that exchange is far from over.
